Can someone please go to Huskerboard and let their people know that Iowa State had a player drafted before them, and that the Hawkeyes have had 6 first rounders since the last time they had one ten years ago? I’m permabanned there. Bonus points if you screenshot before deletion and link the thread.

Kthanksbye
 
I would do it but I’m afraid that Scott Frost might invoke his superpowers and track me down and beat me up.
 
Elon had a player drafted, but not the bluechip bugeaters. Let that sink in. Oh, and one other thing, WHO THE HELL HAS EVER HEARD OF ELON?

Don't worry if Nebraska's 4-star and 5-star recruits stop transferring they will have a first-rounder in 7 or 8 years...
 
What's whacked is they say it was all development.
Which is logical. How can high recruiting classes not have anyone drafted?
So they reason that change of coaches will turn it around. Again logical.
My only question is let's add up the stars and thus the class rankings of the guys who have left since they "started turning it around".
So what, 4stars weren't good enough for the new coach to develop?? I think many schools would love to have that high of rated kids that dear old Nebraska finds undevelopable.
But I did notice they are going after a bunch of transfers.
I'm not saying anything. I'm not inferring anything. I'm just looking at the situation in it's entirety.

Plain and simple if you want to play in the pros someday, you can try and crack the lineup at Bama or Clemson, outside of that you won't find better odds of going pro than right here at Iowa.
 
Funny story.

We're visiting my sister-in-law in Nebraska this weekend. We were just at Target waiting in line at the checkout with our two kids (ages 3 & 4) in the 2-up cart. Suddenly, my wife gets a phone call and the Iowa Fight Song (her ring tone) starts blaring. Without missing a beat, our two kids start chanting "Go Hawks!" in perfect sync with each other and didn't stop until we left the store.

We've been playing the Iowa Fight Song and the "Go Hawks!" trumpet cheer in our van lately and they are very familiar with them.

I was wearing my Iowa hat and my wife was wearing her bumblebee black & gold Iowa hoodie. We couldn't help but crack a smile through it all, but all I was thinking on the way out to the van was I'd like to make it out of here alive.

The dirty looks we got were priceless!

How much did it set you back to replace the two slashed tires?
 
You mean that offensive lineman Gerald Foster wasn't drafted?

You know, the one who said he couldn't WAIT to take down Iowa after beating Michigan State by a baseball score?

Every time Frost or one of his players ran their yappers last fall it came back to bite them in the hind quarters. Every time!

I only had heard of them because one of my good buddies is an Illinois fan and they had a guy a few years ago whose only offers were Elon and Illinois.

I hadn't, so I Googled "Iowa vs Elon". Turns out the Hawkeye Women's Basketball team beat them 74-61 on 11/25/2017.

My favorite comparison is Sioux Falls. In terms of the NFL draft:

Sioux Falls(1) > Nebraska (0)

Oh, that is fun to write. And to rub in Fusker faces for the rest of the year!
